- Strong knowledge of health policy development and implementation processes in Australia or comparable health systems.
- Experience with both qualitative and quantitative research methods, including data analysis, interpretation, and translation of findings into policy and practice.
- Track record of peer-reviewed publications, policy briefs, or government reports.
- Experience engaging with government, non-government, and/or community stakeholders, and contributing to research impact and/or advocacy efforts.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to present complex ideas clearly to diverse audiences.
- Experience with program evaluation, implementation science, and/or guideline development and implementation.
- Familiarity with co-design or participatory research methodologies, particularly with older adults or underserved populations.
